My thoughts.
Jet length does not change fuel level in the circuit. The level is constant. This is controlled by the float.
It may change the initial volume of fuel available to exit the needle jet but thats about all. I have had different length idle jets with no change in how the bike runs.

Re: DynoJet theories.
My Thoughts too.
As the Storm has a plastic float assembly and can't easily be adjusted, why not lower the jet into the fuel further?
The main reason of changing the float height is for when you crack the throttle open quickly, you don't to momentarily use up all the fuel in the bowl before it can get replenished by the tank and make the engine stumble. It also allows you to tune a consistent flow for all the new demands your tuning has placed on the engine.
By changing the jet height you are just doing the same thing without having to change the float height.
